What If?

Our Next Question is What If? What if we started each morning with anticipation, expecting God to show up in our lives? What if we looked at every challenge, not as a burden, but as a gift—an opportunity to grow more like Christ? And what if we ended each day with gratitude and excitement for tomorrow’s growth? In this episode, we ask the powerful “What If?” questions that could reshape the way we live. We’ll explore how Scripture calls us to reframe trials as joy, how psychology supports the power of anticipation and gratitude, and practical ways to live with a mindset of growth and hope. Join us as we imagine—and begin living—the life God designed when we wake up with expectation, walk through hard things with purpose, and rest in the peace of His presence.
